The Hoof and Horn hits the nail on the head, when 1t says: The fight that is at present being made against the ring that has had such tyronical sway over the Chicago live stock market, is one of the most earnest ever waged. The steckmen of the west are fully alive to the fact that itis, figuratively spesking
 victory or death with them, and that return to the old regime means to them a return to bondage that has already wrung from the western rangemen millions of dol lars. With the opening of the new St. Louis stock yards in 1SS1, it is to be hoped that the power for any one set of men to dictate the price of beef will forever become an i'm possibility

closed, but by preaTrangement q number
of his friends fell into line behind the
bar, each taking his turn in dealing out
drinks and getting arrested. The police
made short work of this case. Ia the
northern part of the city two men placed
themselves ia closet behind huge ice
chest, and from this convenient resort
handed out beer until the police had
actually reduced the ice-chest to kind
ling wood and secured the dealers in
person. Altogether there was al IN
expected number of violations and ar
rests.
Joseph Schnaider. who was selected by
brewers and saloOn-keepers to keep his
beer garden open and make test case,
submitted gracefully to arrest and was
conveyed to the Four Courts In q car
rage, accompanied by a retinue of
wealthy brewers. The case will be heard
tomorrow morning in the Court of Grim

two prominent brewers, have been dis

have been bought. Town property in

BRECKENRIDGE, TEX, June 27.-Mr
William West, who lives about ten miles
west from town, had the misfortune to
lose his twelve-yesr-old son, 600 head OF
fine sheep and two good shepherd dogs
last Friday morning. The boy has been
hesrding the sheep for the past year, and
was, it is said, perfectly acquainted with
the country. He went out with the sheep
early Friday morning and has not been
seen or heard of since. Nearly 300 per-
sons hunted all day Saturday and Sunday,
bur ct last account no trace of them had
been found. There has never been 8
time before, Mr.. West says, that the dogs
could not be brought home by horn.
No one is able to solve the mysterious

tempt to Close SalOons-Scenss
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 26.-The enforce
ment of the Sunday law to-day was the
occasion for many exciting humorousIand
sensational scenes. The SaIoonkeepers'
Association had as ia body accepted the
recommendation OF the brewers to close
their business and make few test cases,
but it was found that quite 9 number
were unnansgeable, and these made
trouble for the police throughout the
day. Owing to the queer order of the
Board OF Police Commissioners arrests
were not begun until sunrise this
morning, though how Sunday came
to be twelve instead of twenty -four
hours long nobody seeJ ed ready to eX-
plain. Promptly at sunrise however, the
blue coats turned their attention 10 vi
OlateES Of the Sunday law, and in many
distances the whole power Of The depart
ment was necessary to enforce order and
preserve the peace. In the central dis
triCt, which includes all the leading
hotels and so-called hrst-clsss saloons,
only few unimportant arrests were
made, the main trouble being in the Car
ondelet, Fifth and outlying districts,
where there was preponderance or Tor
eigneTs. In the southern Part of the city
Max Stoehr, the anarchist, threw open
his saloon ;at the usual hour and pro-
ceeded TO violate the law TO the best of
his ability. Before an hour had elapsed
he WAS placed under arrest and conveyed
to the Four Courts. Then his bsrkeeper
reopened the doors and resumed bust
ness, only to find himself few moments
later behind the Jail bars, whereupon
Mrs. Stoehr hung out the red flag
and TOOK her husbands place,
dealing out drinks at a
rapid rate. In the mean time anarchists
began to assemble from all portions OF
the city, and st one time their demon.

department to dispense the crowd.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, June 29.-Some
500 hospital tents belonging to the gov
eminent and stored here have been
shipped to Florida for use by refugees
from Key West. Information has been
received that additional cases of yellow
fever have developed during the last
three days, evincing the rapid spread of
the disease, and giving cause for the
most serious apprehension. All of these
cases have developed in different parts
of the island, showing that the disease is
now beyond the control of the health
authorities and is no longer confined to
the laboring classes. The present disease
differs somewhat in character from the
yellow fever which has ragged before,
being more fatal, the record showing that
out of forty-six cases up to to-day, nine

TIE APACHES SURRENDER.
A Short but Very Decisive CampaiERst
Arizona ~

Arizona W.
CHICAGO, Ill, June 90 Special from
San Carlos, A. tt, says: The renegade
Apsches have given themselves up. After
two weeks of steady chasing the hostiles
began TO scatter and made for the reser-
vation, narrowly escaping death or
capture Jour different times. Seeing
they could not escape they sent one OF
their number in to plead for terms of
surrender. General Miles being at San
Carlos in person notified them that he
would accept their unconditional sur
render, nothing less. Finding it next to
impossible to escape they surrendered
with plea for mercy. During the raid
the troops followed the hostiles forty
five miles over the toughest mountain
in Southern Arizona, through intense
heat with no water. 1t Was
the sharpest, quickest and most emphatic
campaign ever made against these In
dams. In crossing the San Pedro valley
the hostiles travelled nearly fifteen miles
on tip toe to hide their trail, but an In
disn boy named Eaton, graduate OF the
Hampton School, held the trail. Only
two citizens were killed and but little
stock was stolen.
